Comment (by mikeperry):

 Updating the title because this vuln is more general than the oomkiller.
 It can be triggered many, many ways.

 An updated fix for the general issue (based on discussion with dgoulet) is
 at https://github.com/mikeperry-tor/tor/commits/bug23512-v2-032

 I am going to spend a bit seeing if I can use the tests in test_relay.c to
 exercise that code.

 I am ok with this missing 0.3.5.1 for now, but I really think we should
 backport this far enough for relay operators to pick up, though.
